Lightbox was probably the most common widget asked us to install. Old magento wiki likghbox isntruction required some codding experience and also it some took time. But now we are proud to offer new community extension Magento EasyLightbox. This small extension will help to install Lightbox widget. Installation and configuration will take approximately 5 minutes. No files are replaced and no codding experience needed to install!
Please check demo at our demo server.
Sir, I have installed your extension via magento extension connect through straight URl and after the installation I logged out and logged in but when I click over the extension option it display Access Denied ... Please advice me what to do.
If you are using magento 1.3 then you should contact us to get previous extension version.
Hello,
I was able to get the extension installed very easily. The problem I've run into is when the lightbox image pops up it floats under the horizontal menu (using your magento classic theme.) That's the only Issue I've run into.
Hello Rob, please contact us via contact form and we will check what should be changed.
Fixed my float issue -- Everything works great now!
The only feedback Issue I have had is that most people do not notice you must 'mouse' over the picture to get the 'next' button to appear. Is there any way to set this so that when the picture loads the next button automatically appears?
Hi Rob,
I have exactly the same problem, the lightbox works perfectly, except it floats under the header and menu. If you could tell me how you sorted out the float problem that would be really great.
Thanks,
Hector
Did anyone respond as to how to fix the float issue as solved by Rob? Having the same problem.
Hi, please try add to your custom.css
Hello,
I've "Access denied" with the easylightbox extension.

Any help will be appreciate.
Hello Matt, have you tried log in and out from admin?
hey
i have instaled this extension, there was no problem with an instalation, but it seems it just doesnt work i mean the animation, any help please?
Hello Hechtule, sorry what do you mean? Have you set animation parameters in config?
Hi, I´m again...
yout Lightbox for Mag.1.4.0.1 is great....BUT is that an bug:
If I upload an image 4:3 or anything but not an square your Lightbox load it as an square... bad black lines on the left & right side.... test it on a clean installation
Hope for support....excuse my bad english...regards from germany
Hello Chris, most likely you have set maximum size for lightbox image. Please check extension config in admin.
hmmm.. thats not helpful.
in Magento 1.3xx I have all on default(sizes of your extension) and if I have 2 different pictures: 1:2 and 4:3 he load it in real format by your lightbox. On my Magento 1.4 thats not work. I used your default, nothing, Zero etc but he load it everytime as an square (1:1) with bad border on top&bottom or left&right. I can make 400:200px in your Extension and he load my 400:200px sized Images real, but what is with my 200:400 pictures? In your older Version on 1.3xx that works great but not in Magento 1.4. with your extension for 1.4.0.
ok, i´ve searched @ MConnect and found Zippy LightBox. Hmmm... Why is this Extension exactly the same as yours? but this extension works better with the ImageSizes. Extension get the realIMAGEsize from Image in height & width. And the settings are also @ squareFormat like 500x500 but he load it with size what image have. Magento do the same. Hope is an feature in your extension with Button: Enabel/Disable =take real Size from image for Lightboxeffect
Excuse my english...
Chris, thank you for your suggestion. We will check what can be done during next release.
Hello Template.
Is it possible in some way, to disable the picture popup?.
I really dont need it to be able to popup. :)
Thanx for a perfect extension. :)
Best Regards
You can remove it at app\design\frontend\default\yourtheme\template\catalog\product\view\media.phtml
Getting the first image duplicated when installed with Magento 1.4.1.0. Any fix or workaround? Excellent extension. Thanks!
Eric, you should set your main image to be excluded in admin.
I'm using 0.57 as I'm on Magento 1.3. I've got the plugin installed, configured and working, except when you click on an image it loads relative to the top of the page, not the top of the screen? I.e. if the image in question is halfway down the page, the lightbox loads at the top, off screen.
hej, great extension. we're using it on http://www.terrassenheizer-online.de/ and it works perfect for us. keep up the good work.
cheers, andreas
Thanks! We just update extension. It works now on cms pages and products description also!
